Neurologic Examinations of Three Canine Cases of Mammary Adenocarcinoma with Brain Metastases

Abstract

Three canine cases with mammary adenocarcinoma and its pulmonary metastases, showing severe generalized seizure, were clinically and pathologically examined. One of them suggested to have multiple or diffuse disorder of the brain by neurologic examination, was diagnosed as multiple tumor metastases by contrast computed tomography, which was confirmed by pathologic examination. Other two dogs were diagnosed as single brain metastasis of the tumor. The primary pituitary adenocarcinoma was disclosed in one case.
